I just got a sewing machine and learned how to sew. Aside from slight alterations to things this is the first thing I've ever sewn and I don't know what I was thinking but I didn't use a pattern, I just free handed it, and by some miracle it actually came out decent! It took soooooooo long, but I am really happy with it!

It's fleece and flannel with a zipper along the back and a velcro flap to hide the zipper.

There are still a few little strings and things I need to snip which I didn't even realize until I looked at these pictures I got a bit ahead of myself.

I love it! i was just thinking tonight after I looked everywhere and couldn't find ONE dog coat that I need to borrow my grandma's sewing machine and just make some... but honestly mine could never live up to yours! I'm seriously impressed!

Lol we'll see! I am making a couple more tomorrow (one for Socrates and one for the girlfriend). I'd like to get a little more experience before I try making them for other people but I would love to make some and just charge cost (about $6) and shipping just to get some feedback on how they hold up and suggestions. I didn't have any plans to start making them for other people but it's really fun to do and I've already had a couple of requests!

You might surprise yourself. I was saying the whole time "there's no way this is going to be right" then I put it on him and was so surprised!
